U.S. label Severin Films has confirmed that it will add two new titles to its Blu-ray catalog: Franco Prosperi's
Wild Beasts (1984) and Stu Segall's
Drive-In Massacre (1977). Both will arrive on the market in early 2017.
Wild Beasts
Synopsis: All hell breaks loose in the zoo of a German metropolis when the local drinking water gets contaminated by a large quantity of PCP, thus turning all formerly harmless animals into ferociously aggressive beasts. Crazed by a drug-induced blood rage, they break all barriers and soon enough prey on the unsuspecting population of the town. Now it's up to a ballsy scientist and a spunky reporter to save the day and the city.
Drive-In Massacre
Synopsis: A restless crowd and a cheesy double feature lead to two brutal killings at a drive-in! Detective Koch and O'Leary assemble a mixed cast of suspects that would make even Charlie Chan cringe. Is it the deranged knife-thrower, the foul-mouthed bigot, the projectionist, the janitor or the pathetic voyeur? Cold razor-sharp steel slices through warm flesh and hot blood squirts over the screen as patrons are splattered across the hoods of cars and even dismembered at the concession stand!
